摘要

本研究是由一位大学讲师在各系教学中对大学生态度的第一手探索。该研究深入了解了这些学生对英语课程的动机水平,他们对课程的期望,他们对所学内容的反馈以及他们对英语作为一门语言的总体态度。老师对各院系的学生进行了开放式的访谈,得到了深入的定性回答,同时也用封闭式问题问卷进行了一些定量分析。根据研究问题对学生的回答进行分类,并对其进行分析,找出最常见的答案,并从中获取学生反馈的要点,从而对我们的课程内容和英语作为本科必修课的政策进行相应的修改。对他们的回答的分析表明,大多数学生想学习英语,但他们发现课程内容和教学方法,包括课堂指导,有点无聊。大多数学生希望教授语法和口语技巧。很少有学生认为应该教他们专门的英语ESP课程。本研究的结果仅限于拉合尔明哈吉大学的学生。

Attitude of Undergraduate Pakistani Students of other Disciplines towards English as a Minor Subject: A Case Study of Undergraduate Students at Minhaj University Lahore, Pakistan
The present study is a first-hand exploration of university students' attitudes by a university lecturer teaching in various departments. The study gives an insight into the motivation level of these students towards their English language class, their expectations from the course, their feedback about the content being taught to them and their general attitude towards English as a language. Students from various departments were interviewed with open-ended questions by the teacher to get in-depth qualitative answers, as well as with a questionnaire of close-ended questions for some quantitative analysis too. The answers of the students were categorized according to research questions, and they were analyzed to find the most common answers and to get the gist of students' feedback and revise our course content and policy of English as a compulsory subject in undergraduate programs accordingly. The analysis of their answers showed that the majority of the students wanted to learn the English language but they found the course content and teaching methodologies, including classroom instructions, a bit boring. Most of the students expected grammar and spoken skills to be taught. Very few students were of the view that ESP courses with subject-specific English should be taught to them. The findings of this research are limited to students of Minhaj University Lahore.
